Mines; Defi gauges, wheels refurb/respray and deciding what colour to paint my headlight surrounds but ssshhh don' tell the Mrs . I wish it was alot more, lack of funds I'm afraid .

Wolfie.

New wheels will be re-sprayed in the next few weeks, then Apexi ECU, 550cc Injectors, and maybe some carbon goodies

Need coilpacks, brakes pads, wheel bearing, new gearbox and a few other bits before the mods go on though

Fit the centre de-cat, last SAMCO coolant hose, braided brake hoses and large TMIC that are sat in the garage.

New oil, plugs, fuel filter and gearbox/diff oil and then for the rest of the year:

anthracite Inovit ST-IV 18's
TD05 16g
Stainless headers and up-pipe
GGR induction kit (sat in garage) and heat-shield
Walbro pump
Re-map

If funds allow a front splitter, rear bumper lip and change the exhaust for something louder

For very early on, will be fully decatted, uprated fuel pump, and a nice remap to match - That will do me for performance for now, its running 21 psi on standard turbo so i presume it wont be running that for much longer, so when that blows, new turbo

A possible new powder coat for the wheels in white maybe aswell
